Series Premise:
DAWSON'S CREEK,
Columbia TriStar Television's triumphant dramatic series, continues to
entice audiences as it enters its fifth season on the WB network. What
began as a show branded racy and controversial by skeptics has since spawned
a loyal following both nationally and internationally and a chart-topping
soundtrack, and has become the standard in the teen-drama genre. Those
currently suffering the pangs of adolescence and those who just enjoy the
teenage turmoil continue to follow the lives of five recent high school
graduates from Capeside, a small tourist town in coastal Massachusetts,
as they face issues that today's teens encounter in their journey toward
adulthood. A show that set out to capture that time of adolescent anxiety,
sweaty palms and first kisses has since confronted issues including mortality,
infidelity, homosexuality, discrimination, and betrayal.
DAWSON'S CREEK,
which was created and developed by Kevin Williamson, ("Scream," "I Know
What You Did Last Summer," "Teaching Mrs. Tingle") presents a surprisingly
realistic portrayal of the growing pains of five individual teenagers.
The series' setting in the small quaint town of Capeside was an aptly picturesque
location to chronicle the continuing relationships of five high-school
friends.
